 It's probably a commit in the ubuntu (or debian) downstream.

 present so guess 0.2.4 is pretty antiquated.

 tor-0.2.6.3-alpha

 Here's the git command to find the first version that contains a commit,
 for future reference:
 {{{
 $ git describe --contains 35efce1
 tor-0.2.6.3-alpha~199^2~1
 }}}

 Although I do wonder if the integ tests will find more unsupported
 options.

 In #28170, I'll fix stem's travis config so it only tests supported Tor
 versions (0.2.9, 0.3.3 and later).
